PHOTOS: Snow Snarls Traffic Across Tennessee Saturday

Nashville was a downright mess, with accidents on virtually all major interstates through the city. WMSV-TV reported police had responded to two dozen wrecks by mid-morning. At least one person was killed.

Eastern Tennessee was a mess, too. Roane County alone responded to more than 50 wrecks Saturday morning, according to local tv station WBIR.

The situation in Tennessee is the latest snowy highway drama this week. Thursday saw two massive chain-reaction crashes in two heavily-populated U.S. cities. The first was Thursday morning, when blinding snow squalls blinded drivers on I-75 near Detroit, Mich., leading to a series of accidents involving 30 to 35 vehicles. Three people, including two children, were killed.
